Abstract: 【Objective】By the fact that water is continuously emitted, the root zone of tomato in subsurface drip irrigation is purged of water and therefore experiences insufficient oxygen deficiency, an experiment was conducted to observe the effect of rhizosphere ventilation at different stages on plant growth and yield of greenhouse tomato, and assess its significance.【Method】By comparison with the control group, this study was conducted to evaluate the effects of rhizosphere ventilation at different growth stages on the growth, physiological characteristics and yield of tomato grown in greenhouse. 【Result】 Results showed that all of different rhizosphere ventilation treatments could raise tomato’s growth and yield, and the aeration effect was not superimposed at different growth stages. Aeration at seedling stage could advance the first layer flowering time, and the second and third layer flowering time could be also advanced by the aeration at flowering stage, and also could rise the plant height by 14.8%. The whole growing stages ventilation processing improved chlorophyll by 11.1%. The aeration at fruit-setting stage could improve the plant diameter by 5.6%, thus it could promote dry matter accumulation, improve root/shoot ratio and yield.【Conclusion】Tomato at different growth stages with underground drip irrigation shows different responses to the rhizosphere ventilation, and the optimum aeration period of tomato is fruit-setting stage.
